Bill, it was RCR. I sold the car to the Fast 5 movie.

Sweet! Wasn't the blue one was it? Interesting. Ive heard good things about the RCR GT40 builds. One day. I was talked out of building one a few years ago. Seems like lots build them then get rid of them bc they are not very good cars to drive ... comfort and visibility. I settled on a cobra instead. Still might build one or a 63 Corvette GS. GS is probably my next build after I get the RSR done.

Those 8 little air filters on each trumpet look neat, but I bet you are robbing some horsepower there. I did some back to back testing on a restricted intake with an air filter just like those a few inches ahead of the neck of the inlet restrictor, air filter on vs air filter off, panty hose stretched over the trumpet for a filter.
Huge gains without the cone filter. It was a 110HP motor and we saw an extra 6 HP or so peak without the filter. |

That looks like it was found on road dead.

It would make a cool coffee table for a repair shop waiting room.

This is my almost completed 8 year restoration / project. Michael Mount built 3.4 - 10:1 compression, Elgin cams custom grind, turbo oil pump, ARP hardware, cylinder heads have larger intake valves with some mild porting / blending, 964 plastic intake with resonance flap controlled by MSD trigger box, Lindsey Mass air conversion and Motronic DME board modified and custom chip by Steve Wong, B&B stainless exhaust, custom oil breather, MSD ignition, billet lower cam covers, one-off custom braided oil and fuel lines, Wide band O2 with data logging, etc ,etc.
Just got it running last week and sounds awesome! has a definite lopey/rolling idle with instant throttle response that revs and sounds more like an old F1 car! Ta-Da! http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1386080777.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1386080795.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1386080813.jpg |
